Lately, many essential 70s, 80s and 90s fashion pieces have been totally making a comeback. I think they are making a comeback because it is a unique sense of style and can dare you to get out of your comfort zone and try new things. All the colorful clothing and out there patterns back then were really fun, and I think that people want to bring back that type of style to relive those moments in a way.

Here are some essential pieces you should totally try!

For example, denim overalls, denim high waisted shorts and pants, denim skirts and denim jackets. Among denim everything, we also have the classic leather jacket which is a staple piece for your everyday edgy touch.

Besides the very dark colors that are used in these types of styles are colorful/ bright color shirts and prints. Another piece that never goes out of style is floral print, something that has been used back then and until today it is often used. Floral print can be used for casual and simple days at school or college, or it can also be used for formal events, it really depends on what kind of floral print it is.
